Daniel Flanzig and his team represented me in a personal injury case following a bike accident in NYC three years ago. The case recently concluded, and I'm confident the outcome was significantly better than it would have been had I attempted the suit on my own. Throughout the legal process, Daniel and Debbie were always responsive, taking care of everything behind the scenes, which made the process very low-stress for me. I would strongly recommend this office to anyone needing help with a traffic accident injury claim. read more

Wanted to give a shout out to Flanzig & Flanzig! When I was hit coming back from a group ride on Long Island a couple months back I reached out to him and his team was able to secure full payment for the damage to my bike. Easy peasy to work with, literally about as turnkey as it got for the results. Muchly appreciated! read more

I have biked in Brooklyn since the 80's. I used to bike around Prospect Park, and that has stuck with me to this day. I have always been extra cautious on the streets of NYC and eventually became a cycling enthusiast. All this time i never had a very serious car crash on the streets of NYC until 2 years ago. I was doored. It shattered my collarbone, the surgeon called it a bone cloud. It shattered my mental, and my confidence to bike on the streets i grew up on. Dan and team worked with me to make sure that i had everything i needed for my recovery. It is a long road, my shoulder will never be the same but i will try. Thanks to Dan a team i have a fighting chance. If you are in a crash look them up right away. read more

Several years ago I was thrown off my bike due to a dangerous street condition and sustained a serious injury. Daniel, Cathy & their team were an absolute pleasure to work with in the 4+ year battle to hold the owners of the defective utility vault accountable. They were very responsive, transparent, and remained vigilant as the defendants tried to drag out the case. In the end Daniel negotiated a settlement that was more than fair. While I would not recommend breaking a hip, I definitely recommend working with Flanzig & Flanzig. Thank you again! read more

I was "doored" while riding my bike home from work in August of 2019. My hand was badly broken, I was taken from the scene of the accident by ambulance, had extensive surgery, metal pins placed in my hand and months of PT. Truthfully I was unsure of what to do next, but thankfully, through Google search I found Flanzig & Flanzig. I began working with Cathy and so glad I did. There are many points to mention but key items for me: 1. Cathy's demeanor is really nice to work with. She's extremely knowledgeable of the laws and of cyclists rights - I never felt I had to convince her or justify my position to her. She understood and she supported me and advocated for me. She is firm and assertive but also kind. When I had to give my deposition she coached me through that. I always felt reassured working with Cathy. 2. My accident was unfortunately right before Covid, so the courts were closed and became very backed up and it was close to 5 years before we settled everything. Through the process Cathy managed my expectations, kept me updated on the progress and really kept everything running in the background without needing much from me. When either she or I needed something, we connected and Cathy is prompt to respond, takes phone calls directly and never left me without an answer. Imagine - 5 years she steadily worked on my case through uncertain times all toward a positive outcome for me. She was unwilling to settle for less. 3. Because I had Flanzig & Flanzig I was able to focus on my healing and disability leave. 4. In the end Cathy won my case and I received a settlement. She worked with me to feel comfortable with our decision - when to push and when not to push. I didn't want to go to trial, and again she listened to me and guided me. I can't believe for 5 years she collects no fee for the time and work she puts in. In 2024, Cathy took a percentage of the settlement as a payment. I hope you'll never be involved in a cycling accident, but if you are, call Flanzig & Flanzig - there's truly no reason not to. They will help you through the process, really be on your side and fight faithfully for you - no matter how long it takes - to get what you deserve. Thank you, Cathy for the role you had in getting me through a difficult time. read more

I engaged Dan and his team to assist me in pursuing a case when I was doored on a bike ride by a careless driver. They were tremendous, helping me track down the necessary driver information not obtained by the police and keeping me informed throughout the process. They are truly experts in dealing with bicycle accident litigation. I read more

Almost 4 years ago I was struck by a delivery truck while on my bike and suffered a shattered wrist. Cathy Flanzig guided me through the process of bringing a suit against the company that owned the truck and the driver. Ms. Flanzig was professional and compassionate and realistic throughout the whole process. I am grateful to her and her firm for their expertise and diligence. read more

The team here is nothing short of phenomenal. I reached out about my case on a Sunday afternoon from the hospital and we spoke before the evening was over. Since then, they have been happy to answer any question I have, and walked me through the entire process from handling my no-fault insurance to ultimately getting a settlement offer. To any cyclist in search of a lawyer who understands the challenges of biking in this city, look no further than Daniel and his team. read more

Daniel & team were absolutely fantastic to work with over a 4 year period after I was involved in a serious cycling accident. They successfully helped me to navigate the complex New York legal system and secured a great outcome so I couldn't recommend more highly read more

These guys are complete life savers. After a biking accident involving a taxi, I was left scrambling trying to understand the no-fault insurance system and medical bills. It was a nightmare until Flanzig and his team took over. Daniel himself is real--he always answered tho phone and responded promptly to my concerning emails. He explained everything to me in layman language I could understand and made the process feel seamless and easy. His team were always on point--updating me, answering my questions, explaining the ABCs of the legal world to me. I cannot thank them enough. In the end, they took what would have been a disaster and literally a whole other full time job to take care of myself and absolved me of the burden. I am endlessly in their debt for taking care of me and helping me through it all. With their legal expertise, I was given a hefty settlement. And on top of that, the firm adjusted the expenses they accrued on the case so that they took home less and I could take home more. What can you say to that!!? The most human of lawyers I have ever fallen upon. :) read more

Flanzig & Flanzig helped out when I needed them most. While commuting to work on my e-scooter I was involved in a collision with a vehicle.

When I was hit by a car during a group ride in July 2019 and my bike was totaled, I thought I could effectively handle the settlement with Geico (driver's insurance) myself...but a few frustrating weeks into the process, it became apparent that I needed an expert to represent me. Enter: NY Bike Lawyer, Daniel Flanzig. He is one of us! An avid cyclist who feels our pain when there's a crash. I let Dan take over the case, and he ultimately got me 3X what Geico originally offered me. The out-of-court settlement paid for my new replacement bike 100%. Dan is great to work with: so honest, understanding and responsive. The best in his field! If you ever need him, tell him I sent ya! read more

From the outset, I felt like I had a team of seasoned professionals working exclusively for me. From the lengthy phone conversations to the great advice, it always seemed that my case was being paid close attention. After my accident, I felt stranded, disoriented and alone; I literally had no idea what to do. Then I spoke with Daniel. In mere real-time moments he conjured up a plan and together, we set it in motion and all of a sudden, I had hope. Regardless of any potential outcomes, having hope at that point was so important! Daniel, if you read this: I am forever indebted to you. My experience was seamless, and I can wholeheartedly say I would advise any and everyone who ever needed legal representation, to call Flanzig & Flanzig first. I remember speaking with Rina for the first time while still jarred from the accident and having so many questions about the paperwork and she answered every single one - and there were a lot! Thank You, Rina. Cathy, your support through initial -and repeated- communications with the insurance company was unforgettable. Thank You. read more

I was in a motorcycle accident which resulted in me breaking my foot. I hired Flanzig & Flanzig to file a lawsuit against the man who hit me. Daniel Flanzig was incredibly helpful and answered all my questions throughout the duration of the case. All I had to do was let them work and check in once every few months just to see how things were going. After almost 2 years since the accident happened, Daniel and his team won me a $45,000 settlement. I am very satisfied with their work and highly recommend them to anyone in need of a good lawyer. read more

I called Daniel a couple weeks after my accident. He was super helpful the day we first talked and offered a lot of information in our consultation. After I hired them they took care of everything.

Worked with Daniel and had a great experience at a very reasonable fee. He is a cyclist himself so understands and relates very well to challenges and biases cyclists face.

His experience was evident through the timeline and estimated results he provided during our initial consultation which turned out to be spot on. Highly recommend for cycling accidents! read more

See all

Flanzig & Flanzig helped me through a bike accident situation I was in. I had gotten in a wreck that I'd hoped we could handle without lawyers involved, myself and the other party exchanged information, etc. When I woke up the next morning and realized I thoroughly needed medical attention, the other party stopped replying to texts. Daniel Flanzig took all details of the situation and very clearly explained to me the process and options we had. He was very transparent about what could and couldn't be done in my situation and was able to execute on exactly what he had described. I'm 100% satisfied with the end result of my case and the level of attention and communication by Daniel and his staff was awesome at all times. This is an A+ firm. read more

You will not find a better lawyer/professional than Cathy Flanzig. I am 42 years and in my 24 years as a legal adult I have not had a better experience with a professional. Cathy and her team are exceptional communicators and experts in their field. The entire time I was injured and dealing with the hospital and potential bills and insurance and, I didn't have to because Cathy and her team were all over it and I KNEW they had it covered so I could focus on healing, resting, doing PT, and trying to start my life again after fracturing 6 ribs, a clavicle and having a hole in my right lung. She is beyond worth her percentage. I never paid a penny in bills and the settlement was more than I imagined as person who never thought they would receive on in their life. Do I still have to work? Yes. But do I have a little savings now after only have debt my whole adult life. Yes. I would give 10 stars if i could. Hire her. read more

Dan and the team were incredible from start to finish - tremendously professional and achieved a tremendous result for me. I cannot thank them enough for their dedication and trustworthiness. Would recommend anytime to any and all. read more

Daniel and the staff at Flanzig & Flanzig were extremely professional, responsive, friendly and helpful and helpful with my injury sustained while riding a bike. Daniel also works very actively to make bicycling safer in the region, which is very important to me. I would recommend Flanzig & Flanzig to anyone without hesitation. Thank you!! read more

Mr Flanzig very kindly assisted me with claiming insurance reparations when I was hit by a car from my bike. The case got complicated because the driver was arrested, the car he was driving was not his, and the car's insurance company bankrupted. After a few months, I was able to fully recover medical expenses and bike repair costs thanks to Mr. Flanzig. read more

When I was hit by a car on July 15th, 2019, I had no clue what to do. My friend told me about Flanzig and Flanzig personal injury firm, which specializes in accidents involving cyclists. Upon contact, I was guaranteed that everything would be taken care of...and they delivered what they had promised. All in all, I highly recommend this firm to anyone who is looking for professional help in their matter. read more

Daniel and his team helped me out immensely following a bike accident involving an irregularity in a bike path overseen by the city, in which I broke my wrist. Despite the accident being obviously due to poor paving/maintenance, I learned that it can be very hard to prove who is liable, but they did it, and we were able to reach a settlement. Daniel and his team were always professional and made the process really simple for me from the first phone call. I follow their Facebook page and can tell that Daniel and co are passionate about their work and cycling. You'd be in good hands. read more

Daniel Flanzig is the most competent bike lawyer in NYC. Period. I was hit by a car while riding my bike in Brooklyn- and quickly discovered that my injuries alone weren't the biggest hurdle to overcome. Surviving in NYC working freelance in the creative world is already tough, but navigating the legal and structural obstacles that stood between me and the justice I was owed was insanely difficult- until I looked up Daniel Flanzig. I did my research and noticed that he specializes in cases like mine where a cyclist was struck by a car- and after speaking to a few other lawyers, he stood out as the most knowledgeable, relatable and personable guy. Dan Flanzig gave me practical advice, put me at ease, explained everything in detail, and proved his capability time and time again in the legal arena. I am so thankful to Mr. Flanzig and his whole team for helping me get my life back on track. I'm especially grateful for his diligence and specialty services- while recovering from my injuries, I was referred to all manner of unscrupulous lawyers who just want a piece of a settlement and don't know much about cycling laws in NYC. Through our chats and throughout the process it was clear that there was no better expert than Daniel Flanzig to consult when the worst should happen. These things should be simple, but insurance companies have all manner of inconveniences and tricks to encourage the injured and beleaguered to simply give up. Because of his extensive experience, excellent communication, and diligent focus Flanzig is wise to all of this and can make sure you're on track to getting your life back together. I tell my fellow cyclist co-workers to be careful- but sometimes circumstances are beyond your control. That's when you need to call Flanzig and Flanzig. read more

Cathy is the ultimate in responsive and caring about your case. She made sure that the insurance company took my case seriously, as the adjuster had little experience with bikes, their replacement costs, and the level of the injuries sustained at speed. She educated them along the way and made sure I got my due. Without Cathy, it's clear my case would have been a battle with them to get anywhere near the settlement that I received. I recommend Cathy and her brother highly. read more

I was doored when riding my bike in Brooklyn. I broke my hand in the accident and had surgery plus pins inserted to repair it. I hired Flanzig & Flanzig as my personal injury lawyers and I am so glad that I did! They handled every step of the process. My medical bills were fully covered through No Fault, which they immediately set up for me and I won enough money in the settlement to be able to make a down payment on a home. Cathy expertly prepped me for the deposition and fought hard to have my check sent to me in a timely manner after we settled. Hiring this team to represent me was one of the best decisions I've ever made. They helped turn my very painful experience into something positive and I am so grateful. Flanzig & Flanzig are true advocates for New York's bike-riding community! I would recommend them to anyone. read more

Figuratively speaking I think it's safe to say Daniel saved my life. In multiple instances he was not only willing but happy to go above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of legally and represented fairly. He's a humorous, easy going guy and in that way he made complicated litigation extremely simple. Secondly, his deliberate straight forward approach helped us secure a victory and because of that I can't recommend this law firm enough. read more

Great experience working with Flanzig & Flanzig! I connected with Daniel after a bike accident, and he helped me navigate the yearslong legal process that ensued, including all the legal forms, depositions, medical exams, settlement process, etc. He was always super friendly and responsive, and got the job done. There is no way I could have navigated this process without his help. I recommend him and his firm extremely highly for anyone unfortunate enough to be involved in an accident. read more

Flanzig & Flanzig truly exceed expectations, is punctually resourceful, respectfully considerate of your best interest and wellbeing, and absolutely persistent. They know law, they know city streets and suburban roads, and no doubt are adamant of getting justice. I highly recommend and advocate for their team. read more

Extremely positive experience. Professional and courteous from start to finish. Following my cycling injury I hired a personal injury attorney recommended by a close friend. Two months into the case I realized I made a terrible mistake when choosing proper representation, and searched for a personal injury attorney specializing in cyclists' accidents. Boy, did I make the right call. Daniel Flanzig, being an avid cyclist himself, understood what every cyclist has to factor in while riding the roads. I had a million questions running through my head and for every one of them there was someone on the Flanzig & Flanzig team to return my calls and emails. What my initial attorney classified as a weak case, Daniel Flanzig took to a successful settlement. I hope to never need a personal injury attorney again, but if I do, Flanzig & Flanzig law firm will be my first choice. read more
